Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Two Views Of London - Charing Cross Road by Wolfgang Suschitzky was auctioned at Sothebys in London in November 2018, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 1,200.00 – 1,800.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 688.00 (€ 776.04). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wolfgang Suschitzky - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Cambridge Circus, London, which sold at auction in February 2021 for GBP 2,040.00 (€ 2,352.76).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Two Views Of London - Charing Cross Road von Wolfgang Suschitzky im November 2018 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.200,00 – 1.800,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 688,00 (€ 776,04) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Wolfgang Suschitzky mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Cambridge Circus, London beobachtet, die im Februar 2021 für GBP 2.040,00 (€ 2.352,76) versteigert wurde.
